F1 returns in Miami: Complete schedule and race weekend details

F1 and star power, south Florida was made for this

Originally written by Graham Shaw. This version is a translation.

Formula 1 is back in action at the Miami Grand Prix following a rare five-week break, after the calendar was reshaped by the cancellation of races in the Middle East.

The unexpected pause has given teams a valuable chance to regroup after the opening rounds of 2026, with factories focused on upgrades while drivers have used the time to reset ahead of a busy stretch of races.

Attention now shifts to the Miami International Autodrome for a Sprint weekend, where Mercedes will look to maintain their strong form against pressure from Ferrari and McLaren.

Off track, celebrity interest is set to spike again, with Kim Kardashian widely expected to make her first appearance of the season as her relationship with seven-time Lewis Hamilton appears to go from strength to strength.
